February 2007 Theme ~ "Daydreams"






A Land of Make-Believe

Vibrant visions of the mind
Painted by grandeur design
A distant whisper in the breeze
This is the land of make-believe.

A stairway to another place
Captured here in time and space
A book of verse leading me
Into the land of make-believe.

Somewhere I feel safe and warm
A shelter from the raging storm
I find my love awaiting me
In the land of make-believe.

Dreams of love embracing me
Of a love so tenderly
A falling star I capture here
Within the land of make-believe.

Visions fade in morning hues
But I still have my dreams of you
As I journey through eternity
In the land of make-believe.

Daydreaming

Pausing from my work
I gaze outside,
watching you play;
ball bouncing
with a soft rhythmic thud.

I stir from my task
stopping to peer outside.
I spot you sliding down the hill,
laughter echoing,
the snow crunching underfoot

Gazing up from my labor
I notice you balancing, arms out
one cautious step
after another on the beam;
patent leather shoes, softly clicking.

Washing dishes, I watch you
from the window
learning to ride
training wheels wobbling
as they rattle down the driveway.

I gaze out, searching for you;
my work done, time my own.
The silence resounds,
the laughter gone.
You have long since grown.

Along the Edges of the Possible

Outside of my mind yet inside my soul
There flows a whispered hint of something more
A belief in the unreachable
A faith in the unobtainable
Tickles its way through the edges of the possible
Flights of fancy take wing
Inside this hidden backdrop of my imagination
Giving wings to the child within
For some the visions dim
Allowing years the wings to hide
No more trips far and wide
But the truly rich among us
Never forget the bounty within
Catching a ride on the twinkling of a star
To a place not so distant yet so far

My Silent Dream

I sit in awe of this time
I listen to the wind
Blowing through the chimes
My mind journeys over distant fields
To a place where life is but a dream
Where I feel the gentle touch of love
Brushing against my softened cheek
Wiping away my tears as I weep
For the silent secrets in my heart
I am forever bound to keep

I dream of a time where love is real
Where spoken words are soft and gentle
Where you walk hand in hand
Beside the one that holds your soul
To look into his eyes and see
That you will never stand alone with me
And never feel the hand of fear
I dream of a reality
That now could be mine
And for the rest of my time.

Daydreams of Summer

I dream of sunshine on my window pane
As ice falls off the roof again
I dream of warm days with gentle rain
This snow can be such a big pain!

I dream of sunsets golden red
Covers up to my neck or over my head
I dream of flowers blooming in their bed
The frozen apples left on the tree are dead.

I dream of light beams on my face
Not this big scarf winds can't embrace
I dream of lilacs and their look of lace
Snow blowing so hard I leave no trace.

I dream of lazy midsummer's night
Close the door, the wind's a fright !
I dream of waking up to light
Shivering as I try to sleep tonight !

Daydreams

I stare out the window and watch the rain
I trace the drops as they trickle down the pane
My mind starts to wonder as clouds scuddle by
I think back to younger years and let out a sigh

I had such big dreams and goals for my life
I held the whole world like the string of a kite
I could fly it to suit my wishes and whims
So many possibilities that never would end

Young and married to my Army sweetheart
Lonely were the days when we were apart
I lived for his letters and long distance calls
His voice was so close yet the distance held walls

The next year we're parents of a bundle of joy
Two years after that brings a new baby boy
Five years later a new daughter arrives
And I'm a wife and a mother of a family who thrives

Suddenly my Daydreams are shattered in time
I feel shame as I wish what was not to be mine
The things that I have are a treasure indeed
My husband and three children are all that I need

Daydreams

D eep in my soul there is a void that
A llows me to bring to mind, touch, listen, and experience
Y our being, see your face, hear your voice, I day-
D ream of the moments we shared together
R ecalling special events, throughout our life, the adversity of
E ventually being separated by the unexpected, life ending
A ccident which closed the final chapter of your life.Daydreams allow
M y thoughts, emotions, and feelings to
S urround and encompass my heart as the void within rests peacefully.
   We are eternally bound together in my daydreams.

Daydreams

Sitting reading, thoughts pass as we sit
having many daydreams of the wonders
that pass through our world.

Sadness comes and joys pass as we're
daydreaming of the wondrous things
in a beautiful nonviolent world.

Daydreaming of a world with no sadness,
no sorrow or hatred with war of our fellow
man. Joys of children living and never scared
having family and friends always close by.

Sunsets of much beauty and sunrises with lots
of light. Realities creep into the many beautiful
daydreams, the face shows the difference of
expression from everyday daydreams to reality.

Day Dreams

Selena I listen to your music
It makes me fade away
I close my eyes
Suddenly I am there
Without a moments despair

Your concert is the place
Where you Selena show your grace
There is a lot of distinction
No wonder why you are the Texas Rose
Selena is on the stage

There is a fanatic rage
The concert is a sell out
Fans continue to grow
Selena is gone now
I watched the Selena movie

I listened to Selena's song
Dreaming Of You
Now I know what Selena
Was all about
With Selena I am never gloomy

My Daydream

I go and have a daydream,
When I feel lonely and blue,
It always has a long stream,
As well as a nice view too.

As it's always in a big field,
Stopping me feeling really sad
It's a place I can be healed
Where I can be really glad.

It's always a happy place,
Where I tend to belong,
I always have my own space
Where friends come along.

Please, dreams, stay with me
As I don't like feeling so bad
You make me happy and free
Being home makes me so sad.
